From Datong City to Hanging Temple, public transportation + detailed time record

👉🏻 At 8:30, take bus 901 from Yuhe West Road Beidu Street Station, fare 15 yuan/person, and arrive at Hunyuan County Bus Station at 10:30. After getting off the bus, share a taxi with another person for a total of 10 yuan to the entrance of the Hanging Temple, which is just a few minutes away. ❤️❤️❤️【Tip!!!】 It is recommended to check online for remaining tickets for 'Hengshan Scenic Area' - 'Ticket Reservation' before going, as the number of tickets for climbing is limited daily. 👉🏻 Arrive at the Hanging Temple ticket office at 10:30. At that time, there were plenty of remaining tickets, so I bought a paper ticket on-site as a souvenir. ☝🏻️ If you don't climb, you only need to buy an entrance ticket for 15 yuan, and you can see the overall distant view from the large square below. ✌🏻️ To climb, the Hanging Temple entrance ticket is 15 yuan, and the climbing ticket is 100 yuan, totaling 115 yuan/person. 🧡🧡🧡 There is a limit on the number of people who can climb the Hanging Temple. Generally, a few people can go up only after a few people come down, so the queue time is quite long. It took more than 30 minutes to reach the climbing ticket check point (off-season). 👉🏻 Enter the Hanging Temple at 11:15. The paths are narrow and single-file, with people walking slowly in line. Apart from a few pavilions and slightly wider places where you can stop to take pictures, you basically can't linger. It takes about 40 minutes to tour around. 💛💛💛 The entire building is embedded in the rock wall, with an all-wood structure, half in the mountain and half suspended. Some places even feel a bit shaky when stepped on. I don't know how it was built back then; it truly is a 'world wonder.' Overall, I personally feel that the Hanging Temple and the mountain look more impressive from a distance. Climbing allows for a closer experience of its historical feel. It depends on personal preference. 💚💚💚【Tip!!!】 Had lunch at a small shop near the scenic area, eating Hunyuan cold noodles and knife-cut noodles. Before going, I saw a recommendation for a shop called something like 'Little Wife,' but couldn't remember the exact name. When I got there, I was stunned!!! Every shop on the street had a name like 'Little Wife...' So, make sure to remember the exact name of the shop you want to eat at. I ended up randomly choosing one called 'Zhao's Little Wife.' It was still quite cold in April, and their hot cold noodles were delicious, but the knife-cut noodles were not so good. 👉🏻 At 14:00, take the scenic area shuttle from the Hanging Temple to Hunyuan Bus Station, fare 8 yuan/person. At the bus station, you don't need to buy a bus ticket in the hall; just go through the hall to the back and find bus 901. The driver will collect the fare on the bus. 👉🏻 It takes about 2 hours to return to Datong City from Hunyuan County, arriving back in the city around 16:00. I got off at Xingyun North Street, which is closer to the ancient city. Next, I will update on Datong Ancient City + Museum.
